Faster, Safer Oracle Data Migration: Using VERITAS Storage Foundation Portable Data Containers to Move Oracle Data Between Unlike Platforms Faster, More Safely, and With Less Disruption
Overview Whether for permanent change to a new environment, or for the operational convenience of "Off-host" processing, the ability to move data between computing platforms of different types increases the flexibility of enterprise information technology operations significantly. But the complexity of moving data between unlike platforms has been a barrier to exploiting data assets in this way. VERITAS Cross-platform Data Sharing (CDS) technology reduces the time and resources required to move data between unlike platforms by eliminating the FTP or tape exchange copy step. CDS technology creates Portable Data Containers (PDCs), building blocks for virtual volumes that make it possible to transport the volumes between unlike platforms. This paper describes portable data containers and their relation to Oracle database migration activities.
